ordered dragon chinese sizzler..quantity was huge.. enough for a family…
tried nutella nut shake and it was great too..
staffs are polite.. loved the ambience

i have been there 2 times. one of my bestplacein ahmedabad for food. mojito, soya chaap gravy, momos all are best.

**great food**

ordered alfredo pasta for my fiancé and was ordering for the first time from this place. so, i was a bit curious of how it would turn out.

i had mentioned a note while ordering online i.e. "not too sweet - keep little spicy" and immediately after i placed the order, got a call from thisplaceand they mentioned that it's alfredo, it's expected to be cheesy and not too spicy. could you please help us understand how you want it. i asked them to keep it as it is but just add some more pepper & chilly flakes ----

that's what they made and when my fiancé had the first bite he said, "it's the best pasta i've ever had..."

ps: loved the cute note... me being a lover of this small gestures, it felt really nice that they took a little extra step to make the experience of ours, better :) :)

great food!!

i visited theplaceyesterday but was very disappointed with the food. firstly we ordered a classic lasagna and spaghetti pasta. the spaghetti used was noodles and totally tasteless. you feel like you are having chinese noodles without soya sauce.
then i ordered a blueberry cheesecake pastry which was absolutely dry and felt like rubber. the top of the cheesecake i.e. the crushed blueberry was all fried out and tasted like dried jam which was not used since months.
not at all happy with the food. :(

amazingplacewith amazing food and vibe

i love thisplaceand its food but this time it was a bit salty... no doubt taste was very good but the salt ruined that 2points...

the food at thisplaceparticularly the north indian food is always well cooked and delicious. however, langar wali dal was not very good and pretty average. the parathas were very crispy and nice but very less portions of parathas. the staff was the biggest disappointment. there was a lot of miscommunication and 3 different staff members came to ask the same thing from us. the plates although covered in plastic were still very inconvenient for eating north indian food in. initially one of the waiters also denied getting a bowl for the dal but another one got it for us. the ambience is very gloomy and depressed. although some staff was very polite and courteous, the others ruined the experience. the food was very expensive too and they should consider reducing the price.

ristretto - behind the rods
is one of the few italian- mexican cuisine restaurants in this locality, which serve good food of respective cuisines, only downside with such diverse cuisines, it is a pure veg restaurant . the ambiance of this restaurant is descent enough, designer wallpapers put up on wooden walls, make appearance look sober but good. the restaurant gets really crowded during evenings, especially on weekends but nevertheless seating here is comfortable, cushions n sofas along with spacious seating.
now, coming to the food part, menu card has plenty to choose from, but i felt, given by menu that thisplaceserves mexican n italian cuisine.to begin with, we had mexican hot pot n mustard mayo, which was served piping hot, and delicious. next we ordered jalepeno cheese cigar rolls which was crispy on outside, soft crunchy bite but well cooked inside.. next mexican sizzler, combination of mexican spices rice, veg pattis, made of cottage cheese n herbs, topped with their own cheese sauce, sauted veggies n red pasta. the dish was good in textures, and well presented items wise. all the items in sizzler were tasty, authenticity of cuisine well preserved. to munch on in between, as, sizzler was gonna take good 20-25 minutes to prepare, we ordered nachos with salsa n cheese sauce.nachos were fresh n crispy n salsa was fresh as well
to go along with these dishes, from mocktails, tube light that is grape n cranberry slush were our choices and both were good.
so, finally after a long wait of over a year, i experienced dine in here, and it was certainly not disappointing, its surely worth visiting at least once.

cheeze fondue.. not tasty. wrost taste ever. please do notplaceorder of maxican sizzler. suggestions - give food taste atleast as per your food price. we can not visit again in life and suggest everyone to not go.
